Commercial Audio & Video Week 3

Week three started and ended just like any other week. We moved job-to-job almost everyday sometimes going to several different job-sites in one day. Its nice being in one location all day for a couple of days at a time but I almost prefer going from jobsite to jobsite. It makes the day a bit more exciting. We went from one job where we would install several speakers and then move onto the next to mount a TV which only takes a couple hours once the wiring is said and done.
TV to be mounted in Rock Rapids

It was nice one day making the drive to Rock Rapids Iowa just to install a speaker and mount a huge TV at a bank. Once we got there it took about 4-5 hours to complete with pulling wire to where it needed to go. With the drive that added a couple of hours which turned an easy job into an all day affair.
Sensor for the Truck-Stop
We had to install the a first for the company which was a scanner system for a truck-stop in Sioux Falls. Was pretty system as we were just replacing current sensors with new ones.
Just Nate being a Ninja installing sensors
The back of the van was always cram packed full of stuff and was almost impossible to find anything without removing everything from the van. Was actually quite the pain.
Our Messy Van
And after a TV is mounted it is damn near impossible to see where to plug things in so we take a lot of pictures up close behind the TV to get a glimpse at where things need to go (if we were smart we would look before we mounted it.)
We get a lot of pictures like this when trying to hook up TVs
